  • The com at the time was dominated by discussion of the Prodigy cancellation, so it was a relevant topic and not being overly critical for the sake of being overly critical. It presented an opinion of the cancelation that wasnt predicting doom and gloom for the franchise like the mod line being pushed at the time.

    Even if it isn’t substantial, why isn’t there a list of blocked domains? Or a rule about it? It could have spurred a discussion in the comments, what makes a community forum like this so special. The point is it didn’t violate any community standards. Then when I tried to open a discussion about it to try and refine the rules/community standards moving forward (early days of reddit emigration) I was permabanned for starting drama.

    I’m not looking for a com where everyone is super critical. I am looking for one where mods are acting as petty little tyrants banning well meaning contributors because they don’t have the exact same opinion on certain things as they do.

    The mods are more interested in the reddit community and it shows. It’s clear Lemmy is downstream of reddit to them.










  • I’m not arguing with someone who keeps contradicting themselves in their own comment and lacks any basic historical awareness of the cold war or 20th century at large. Let me make my point crystal clear:

    Nuclear war and world war should be avoided at all costs

    The US committing troops to the ground to fight for Ukrainian sovereignty will trigger WW3

    A third world war between NATO and Russia will involve the use of nuclear warheads

    If you’d like to refute any of these points please be prepared to bring something to back up your words. I am a historian so I’ll take any primary source or peer reviewed secondary sources. Otherwise you’re just blowing hot air for the purpose of stoking hate. Something I won’t take any more part in.
